Joe, Retrouaville is unlikely to come back to this state, they don't have enough people to run the weekends.
I want to make a 'friends' connection with him first and see if we can have fun together (non-sexually). I feel constantly on alert at the moment that he's going to try it on so I can't relax with him. I feel that wheneverI bring up a topic of conversation I get the impression he is not interested in chatting. He says it's because he's nervous. Fair enough, but can't he start conversations of his own? Talk about work, or his training or d6? I feel like I'm carrying the rest of the relationship and he is carrying the sex part. I don't want that dynamic to return - I feel ripped off.
